Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, is the highest Cotswold town in the county. One of the old wool towns, its prefix ‘Chipping’ comes from an Old English word for market, and it was prosperous as early as the 13^th century. The typical Victorian pinnacled and turreted tweed mill built in the 19^th century brought much-needed employment to the town which was gradually decaying. Once a great Norman castle stood on the mounds above the beautiful wool church which still dominates the town. The usual wide Cotswold market place contains many good examples of the 16^th- and 17^th-century, stonemasons' craft. Outstanding are Henry Cornishe's Almshouses built in 1640. There are several well-built inns, particularly the 17^th-century White Hart.

The Parish Church of St Mary is mainly of 14^th- to l5^th-century construction, though it incorporates much earlier features. The polygonal porch with a room above it has fascinating bosses of strange creatures tying the ribs of the vaulting. The Perpendicular clerestory fills the church with light from its vast expanse of glass. A lot of the medieval stonework has been restored. The font is l5^th-century and its intricate tracery has a pleasing delicacy. The Market Hall was built in 1842 to blend with the Cotswold atmosphere of the town and is an outstanding example of the work of the architect George Stanley Repton.
